Don’t run for your The Walking Dead survival kit, because it was only temporary.

Run for Your Lives — a 5k run complete with mud, obstacles and, of course, zombies — featured thousands of runners this past Saturday and Sunday in Amesbury, Mass. All runners were given three flag football style flags, and if they made it to the end of the race with at least one flag left, they were considered survivors of the zombie apocalypse.

The race is planning on making stops throughout the country this summer, for more information be sure to check out www.runforyourlives.com. Check out the video above by NESN.com’s zombie insider, Paul Paquette.
